  1. At the Meijer just north of Lancaster you can hit Lithopilis Rd NW (39) at the light, to your left, and take it up to Lithopolis...through Lithopolis up Gender (674) to Winchester Pike to 70 then through that BS to 71N. Or take Winchester pike and cut 104 across to 71... Could also jump on 315 from there to Henderson then up to Morse. Doubt it would be much quicker...more scenic and curvy. In snow more dangerous. Deer, ect.
  2. So awesome. Love the banter. Up to episode 4 lol
  3. I used it this year. Had to pay with all my deductions and multiple states, but its ok. I also ran EVERYTHING through HR Block to back check and ended up confused and frustrated, so TT is definitely the way to go.
  4. x another for Dyson. I love our DC33. My only gripe is the stretchy tube is too strong. really wants to pull the whole machine at me while using it.
  5. sold Just posted it on CL last night for 3600. CR price 3300. http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a299/iwashmycar/FOR%20SALE/IMG_0063_zpsscln0iso.jpg http://columbus.craigslist.org/cto/4892191757.html It runs well. I feel like it has a stumble at idle. Doesnt affect driving whatsoever. May be as simple as a cap and rotor...I have only replaced the plugs and wires... filters, battery, tires, other small things. I think the PS pump may be leaking a little too. has a wet hose from the reservoir. That or maybe the oil pan drain. It leaves a little dot on the ground after parking after a warmed up trip. I dont get to crawl under it much being the wife's DD in the cold weather. Good truck though. Would make a good boat towing rig. Has a good hitch and even still has the rear helper leafs on it from when I towed a small trailer from SC to VA once. Let me know if you have any questions - can text or call 614 five-oh-six 2017.

  6. Grabbed one of the Rav4s today. The guy was indeed super chill and we had an awesome finance guy who cut all the BS, we signed and were out of there to immediately test it out in this blizzard lol.
  7. x2. Prime time to sell our old 03 XTerra. Love tax time.
  8. Nope...this is open the thing up and scrape kind of buildup. Hard to say if it is inevitable, or what...I think it may be...but there are people running up over 100K without issues..maybe because those type of mileages come from many miles per day allowing it to warm properly ect.
  9. I dont think the ones the OP is referencing are....the turbo ones yes. Tensioner and drive chain problems...bad carbon buildup problems. Those fit Alex's description well. I was owner #1 in that case. Warranty was up at 50K. Ditched it at 51K. Even with the SC ones...you gotta be on point with maintenance... religious oil changes, plugs, proper octane...all stuff superchargers like. Just to keep it all lubed and happy. Then again a supercharged car isnt exactly a run-of-the-mill grocery getter. May say the same for a SC Xterra ect. Again, I dont think we were discussing them...just the N/A ones was my take on it.
  10. A first gen non-SC (R50) w/ manual trans is pretty much bulletproof...simple to work on, and although quite slow as others have mentioned, they could be a lot of fun to toss around in autoX. Obviously the 'S' (R53) model is WAY more fun, but then you get to deal with all the Supercharger reliability and potential problems.
  11. I just watched S1 E1 lol. Im on the fence, but I hope it is good. After House of Cards its tough to want to watch anything else
  12. Dinner and some theater show she'll enjoy. Also going to go lease her a car on Sat most likely so that is a pretty nice V-day occurrence IMO
  13. Also it seems like Chrysler's leases are typically 3yrs. w/ 10K miles / year. Something to keep in mind. If they were zero down that helps some.
  14. Definitely a numbers game I can get behind. We are going to go check out the Rav4s this weekend. Sell our old XTerra on CL and have reliable transportation for the wife for 2 years. Seems well worth it, and am glad this thread came up.
  15. True... would be throwing a lot of money away to lower the payment a mere ~$1000/ 24.mo....makes sense all day long now that I think about it.
  16. What do you mean by trade? Like a lease trade in? Or an owned car? Sorry if that is a dumb question...Ive never leased and was curious. Heated seats? EDIt: I see it is a literal trade-in. Wonder if it matters how much its worth?? Can I trade in a 2500 dollar car?
  17. Does that make it "not as good" as a typical decent plasma then? Or is the overall picture still worth it despite that?
  18. Salads are pretty easy, except maybe having a ton of ingredients and cleanup. Could prep it all into baggies in advance though. One of my favs 4c. Lettuce(s) - I like the Baby spinach / arugula mix 2tbsp. diced cucumber 2tbsp. diced tomato 2tbsp. black beans cilantro buy a bag of those salad tortilla pieces buy a bag of refrigerated salad chicken sprinkle some ground red pepper ranch. some shredded cheddar if you like mix it all up Delicious.
  19. Hmm interesting. I did HR and Turbotax just to compare...Once I got to the state stuff HR got all out of whack. TT is seems to run my info into state for the duration of the return so I know what is what. Having moved part year from VA makes it a bit confusing I think lol
  20. He doesnt get one from a coworker. The guy who occasionally picks him up is some random banker that happened to stop one day. It mentioned none of his coworkers live anywhere near where he does.
  21. Its above 60 now...also some chebby dealer is going to give the guy a car. http://www.buzzfeed.com/stephaniemcneal/after-story-of-man-who-walks-21-miles-a-day-to-work-goes-vir?bffb&utm_term=4ldqpgp#.liGaQpYla
